    Need Help! No start issue

    So I changed the oil in my truck like I always have and go to start the truck........Only turns over. It turns over with plenty of power but wont start. After trying a few times and looking at different possibilities I realize that my tuner isnt coming on! When I first click the key on the dot in the corner flashes and then after that the tuner showes nothing.

    I am assuming that this means there is an issue with the PCM can someone help point me in the direction to go with this. I have given up for the night, I do plan on checking fuses and such tomorrow but am afraid that it is more than that. Any help is appriciated.

    On a side note I think my truck is mad at me because I am getting it ready to sell. This is just it punishing me.:flame:

    check to make sure the oil press gauge goes up after cranking for a few tries...sometimes it takes 10 min of cranking or more(in 30sec intervals) to get my truck to start after oil changes... kinda wierd but sometimes it will start for a few sec before the gauge registers any oil press. I would put a batt charger on it before you start cranking alot... good luck buddy, let us know how it goes tomorrow.

    I will try it again. I have already cranked on it quiet a bit. Still no oil pressure, but I know that my dummy gauge usually doesnt kick in until about 5 seconds after starting following an oil change.

    The big thing that concerns me is that the DP tuner doesnt come on after turning the key on. (it usually does)

    Matt, it sounds like the chip got put in the "no start" position for some reason. Press and hold down the left button on the switcher for 3-5 seconds. The switcher should return to the #1 program position.
